GOP Gone Wild

Yeah, they're the party of fiscal responsibility.


Top two graphs from The Washington Post disclosure story, above:

The Republican National Committee spent tens of thousands of dollars last month on luxury jets, posh hotels and other high-flying expenses, according to new Federal Election Commission filings, including nearly $2,000 for "meals" at Voyeur West Hollywood, a lesbian-themed nightclub that features topless dancers in bondage outfits.

The RNC spent more than $17,000 on private jet travel in Febuary as well as nearly $13,000 for limousines, according to the documents. The GOP's main political committee also ran up tabs at numerous posh hotels, including the Beverly Hills Hotel ($9,000); the Beverly Wilshire Four Seasons ($6,600) and the W Hotel in Washington ($15,000), and spent more than $43,000 on its controversial midwinter meeting in Hawaii, not including airfare.

Yes, and I'm sure the DNC is shuttling their people around in Yugos and looking for the light left on at Motel 6. Both sides are a bunch of arrogant asses, you just choose to point out one side while giving a big pass to the other.

Believe me, if the DNC did this I would be the first to yell about it.
